But even so, I was expecting to catch a repeating, recognizable pattern of leather-wrinkles to give it away, but I can’t find a single repeat. The “leather” itself is what surprised me the most – but then again, it should, given it’s the cornerstone of any vegan leather option. I haven’t ordered Adidas in a while, nor do I have any in my closet to compare, so take that with a grain of kosher salt.Ī bit difficult to photo, but that leather grain is top-notch. I’d order your normal size in most cases, but there’s a chance these run a touch small. In terms of the fit, they’re a classic, narrower fit, and they’re actually pretty perfect. I ordered a size 9.5, which was all that was available at the time, as my normal 9 was out of stock.
These obviously have the same attention to detail, material selection, and construction as their leather counterparts. These aren’t your big-box-store, plasticky-leather, $25 facsimile of a popular shoe. Honestly, if I didn’t already know I was holding vegan shoes, I’m not sure I’d believe you if you told me. The materials feel excellent in the hand, have a substantial enough weight to them that they don’t have that “artificial” feel that some faux-leather shoes can have. Right out of the box, these look, and feel, exactly like the Adidas classic. But to remake such classics as the Samba, the Superstar, and the new-Dappered-favorite Continental 80 without leather? That takes a lot of planning and solid execution. It’s one thing to make a sneaker out of vegan materials. When Adidas set out to remake the iconic Samba OG sneaker with completely animal-free materials (no leathers, no glues/colors with animal derivations), they knew that had to nail it. He plays guitar and drums, loves going to concerts with his wife, and loves being a dad.Īs somewhat of Dappered’s “animal-free” guy, I’ve become interested in products that take familiar menswear stalwarts and manage to create a similar or near-exact replica without the use of leather.
